Organizations

What is an Organization?

An organization is a legal and billing entity — in practice, the company or sole trader in whose name sales are made. All checkouts always belong to one organization, and billing happens at the organization level.

The same user account can belong to multiple organizations with different roles.

Organization Structure

An organization contains:

• Checkouts — self-contained checkout environments with their own products and settings
• Members — users with access to the organization and its checkouts
• Billing — billing details, payment card, and invoice history
• Settings — name, logo, business ID, VAT details, address, policies, and terms

See: Organization Settings

Members and Roles

Organization members have one of three roles: Owner, Admin, or Member. Members can also be granted checkout-specific roles.

Billing and Activation

Selling requires the organization to be activated. Activation requires filling in billing details and adding a payment card. Billing covers all of the organization's checkouts and is processed monthly.

When to Create a New Organization

Create a new organization when you are dealing with a separate legal entity. If you sell multiple product lines or brands under the same company, you can do so within the same organization using separate checkouts.
